China's ban on Canadian beef still in place year-and-a-half later; industry in dark - BNN Bloomberg

A Chinese ban on Canadian beef that industry officials expected would be short-lived remains in place 17 months later, and industry representatives say they remain in the dark about the reasons.

However, both South Korea and the Philippines lifted the restrictions less than two months later, while China — which in 2021 was Canada's third-largest beef export market, importing $193 million worth of product — has still not resumed trade. Laycraft said he doesn't know what the sticking point is when it comes to Canada, adding only that he doesn't believe there is a scientific explanation.

Tensions between Canada and China have recently ratcheted up again, with the Canadian government on Monday expelling Chinese diplomat Zhao Wei, alleging he was involved in a plot to intimidate Conservative MP Michael Chong and his relatives in Hong Kong.
